(CNSNews.com) – Listing the reasons why Americans should vote for him, President Barack Obama told an audience at a high school in New Hampshire on Monday that failure to subsidize abortions and contraception is the same as “restricting access” to those services.

“In this election, on every single challenge that we face, you’ve got the final say,” Obama told the crowd at Oyster River High School in Durham, N.H.

“You can decide that instead of restricting access to birth control or defunding Planned Parenthood, we should make sure that in this country, women control their own health care choices. That’s up to you,” the president said to applause.

Start them young, right Obama?

Why do you post all these links to far-right propaganda but never make any intelligent comments on the content? Do you have an opinion or original thoughts on the issue?

What exactly do you not like about Obama's statements-- in your own words?

Any monkey can cut and paste. Prove your worthy by demonstrating some critical thinking skills.

Although your comments were not directed to me, I'll start off anyway.......

I don't think it's appropriate to spend MY tax money on other peoples birth control.......I think that is a personal obligation, not the taxpayer.....and birth control is dirt cheap......anyone can scrounge up $9 per month for a perscription at WalMart.

“You can decide that instead of restricting access to guns or defunding Youth Gun Safety Programs, we should make sure that in this country, people control their own self defense choices. That’s up to you,” the president said to applause.

Funny how if you change a few words to include what is actually a right protected by the Constitution, you would not see Obama saying the same thing.

First of all, for you to request someone else use critical thinking skills is a joke.

Secondly, I don't have to 'prove you're (sic) worthy' but I'll indulge you because if I don't you'll run around thinking "I ROOL".

I don't appreciate how liberals/democrats/schools think they can better raise my child than I can. It smacks of political propaganda and it's insulting. They don't respect my religion or my right to parent my child in the way I see fit.

In a high school he made these comments? I don't know how many were actually 18 but I find it inappropriate for the president (any president) to comment on such personal matters to kids, AND promote his liberal agenda. It sickens me.

Speaking of monkeys, I don't think I've seen you cut and paste so there we have it.

Obama's argument that failing to pay for somebody else's birth control is the same as restricting access is like saying that if I don't pick up the check for a stranger's dinner, it's as if I'm starving them. It's the presumption that others have a right to the contents of my wallet that I, and pretty much everyone else here, find appalling.

Now, since we've all answered your questions, why don't you tell us your position on using federal funding for abortion?

I don't care one way or the other who pays for birth control. It's more important, I think, to understand that Obama is currently winning the narrative by implying that Republicans do not want women to have access to "free" birth control.
The narrative has become, "Republicans want you to pay thousands of dollars per year for birth control or not have it at all. We Democrats want all women covered."
